Best 2TB ext. HD

[Bluto]

After a great deal of bewildering research, I ask again, recommendations? Should have a firewire port, I'm liking the idea of a Raid 1 backup. Many Thanks for a Great Forum!

Does it have to be firewire? This has firewire but consider the advantage of esata http://www.caldigit.com/CalDigit_VR/

I haven't used a firewire HDD in a long, long time.

Have any of you experienced gurus tried the OWC line of drives? The specs look good and the price is spot on..

Hi, I've just been directed to this thread because I was after an inexpensive ext hard drive, is there any reason why you haven't used firewire hd in a long, long time and what would you recommend, Cheers

esata interface on PC is GREAT! esata on newer Mac...good luck! Apple fudged their new firmware, thus disabling esata cards on the Macbook Pro. Otherwise, RAID with Firewire 800 works for me.
